Image Caption: Superb oblique view northeastward across the Big Bend. Extends from Chihuahua in the foreground, to the Sierra Vieja and Davis Mountains in the west, and across the Martathon Basin and Agua Chili flourspar district on the east. Excellent depiction of the eastern Laramide folds from the Horse Mountains through the Del Nortes.
An eastward view over the Chisos Mountains (1) of the Big Bend
region contains a conspicuous, large caldera (2), and other cir-
cular structures formed by igneous intrusion. The Rio Grande (3)
meets the Rio Grande (3) at Presidio. (51I-33-056I)
